'What kind of crossbow should be aimed against the shoulder?' ’

Wang Yi looked at the crossbowmen in the Zhou army formation in front of him, and had some doubts in his heart, his eyesight was very good, so he could barely see that the posture of these crossbowmen with crossbows was a little special: he actually needed to put the rear end of the crossbow against his shoulder. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

It's a little weird, but Wang Yi didn't think too much about it, because crossbow arrows can break armor, so he didn't plan to shoot at Zhou Jun in the first place, and the reason why he approached the phalanx was to trick him into shooting arrows.

Estimating that the distance was about the same, Wang Yi was about to instigate his mount to slow down and turn sharply, when he heard the sound of bowstrings in the Zhou army's array.

The moment the arrow left the arrow trough, the crossbowman's body leaned back obviously, and Wang Yi, who witnessed this moment, was stunned: How powerful must this crossbow be to have such a terrifying momentum? And the arrows shot by such a crossbow can be blocked by armor?

The answer was soon revealed, a cavalryman in front of Wang Yi was shot in the body by an arrow, and before the mount could run a few steps, his body fell off the horse crookedly, and at the same time, Wang Yi's body shook and almost fell to the ground.

The neck of the war horse under the crotch was dripping with blood, and the speed of running slowed down, thinking that it was because he was shot by a crossbow arrow and the injury was not light, and the troops came up from the left and right to block the arrows for Wang Yi, but the crossbow arrows of the Zhou army only shot three rounds and then there was no movement.

Maybe it was because he dispersed the approaching cavalry of the Chen army, the other party did not shoot arrows rashly, and Wang Yi did not plan to really charge the battle, the spears in the Zhou army were like a forest, and they looked like a hedgehog.

The Zhou soldiers were dressed in some special armor, which was protected from head to toe, and Wang Yi felt that the cavalry of his own cavalry was no longer of much significance.

Collecting the troops and retreating to a hundred paces away, Wang Xi's mount could no longer hold on, he rode the preparation horse brought by the upper part, and was about to send people back to the main formation to listen to the order, but he heard the continuous howl from the west, and everyone could not help but be surprised when they raised their eyes: the war elephant that had begun to charge was now stopped, and seemed to have been attacked head-on.

Wang Yi was ordered by his father Wang Meng to lead the cavalry forward, in order to force the Zhou army to shrink into a group, so as to create an opportunity for the elephant army to break through the sand bag in one fell swoop.

But why are the war elephants like this, screaming and screaming, and it seems that there are many casualties?

There should be no big crossbows in this Zhou army, could it be that they sent dead soldiers to fight against elephants?

Wang Yi didn't think much about it, let alone hesitate, and commanded the cavalry to bypass the Zhou army formation left and right, to support the elephant army on the other side, his father did not have Mingjin, so Wang Yi had to make his own judgment, the fighter on the battlefield was fleeting, and the advantages that were finally obtained could not be wasted.

The elephant army is the key to breaking the enemy, although there are shortcomings, but it is their last hope, if even the elephant army is defeated, today's war is afraid...

"Kill! Kill!! ”

The howl suddenly sounded, and just as the Chen cavalry was about to bypass the Zhou army's formation, some soldiers suddenly rushed out from both sides of the phalanx, approaching the Chen army's cavalry on foot, constantly shouting and shouting to kill.

Seeing that these isolated infantry dared to approach him, Wang Yi was stunned for a while, thinking if the other party had any conspiracy, but saw that these soldiers did not take spears and spears except for bows and arrows and sabers.

Recklessly leaving his own formation, without the cover of the long soldiers, and even the crossbowmen of his own formation, Wang Yi felt a little incredulous: where did the confidence of these soldiers come from to fight the cavalry alone?

"It's too much to deceive people, I let you have no return!"

The cavalry of the Chen army was attracted by the archers of the Zhou army who left the battle rashly, and planned to 'eat' these arrogant soldiers who did not know what to do, but the opponent was not far from the main formation, resulting in the cavalry of the Chen army could not be pressed by all of them, and only a part of the cavalry could be divided to attack.

In order to ensure speed, none of the Chen army's war horses were armored, so once they rushed up extremely fast, they planned to use their speed to succeed before the other Zhou troops reinforced.

Quickly approaching the distance of fifty paces, the cavalry of the Chen army shot an arrow at the Zhou soldiers in front, then hung the bow on the edge of the saddle and drew the saber, at this moment, the Zhou soldiers who did not avoid the arrows shot the arrows.

The arrow is like a flat-headed shovel shooting arrow, which can cut the muscles of the war horse, and Zhou Bing is not aiming at the horse Chen Bing, but the front blade of the war horse under his crotch.

The arrow from the string soon flew a distance of thirty paces, and the extremely sharp arrow severed the muscles of the thick horse's legs, and the unbalanced horse immediately threw himself to the ground, throwing his master in the saddle forward.

An arrow knocked down a war horse, and Hu Si Wanshan, who was hit by an arrow in the chest, quickly drew an armor-piercing arrow, and once again bent his bow at the cavalry who had rushed in front of him, and the saber in the man's hand shimmered in the sun.

Death was just around the corner, but Hu Si Wanshan did not waver at all, aiming at the throat of the other party without hesitation to release the arrow.

An arrow pierced the throat, life disappeared in an instant, the owner who had lost his will, could not control his arm, Hu Si Wanshan just lowered his head slightly, and dodged the steel knife that slashed at him, and then appeared in his sight was the third rider who followed.

Abandoning the bow and drawing the sword, Hu Si Wanshan planned to use the "ground knife" practiced on weekdays to cut the horse's legs, but saw that the cavalry was shot in the face by an arrow from his companion and fell to his death on the spot.

The hard-fought battle caught the Chen cavalry off guard, and the cavalry who rushed in front fell off their horses one after another, so that the cavalry that followed had to diverge to the left and right to avoid it, and there was no time to take care of the Zhou archers who attacked, so they could only stagger.

"It doesn't matter, Hus."

Hearing his comrade's question, Hu Si Wanshan pulled out the feather arrow nailed to his chest armor and waved it in front of the other party, the arrow was bloodless, which means that although he was hit by the arrow, he was fine.

Not only him, but all the archers who were hit by the arrows easily pulled out their feathered arrows and picked up their bows alive to meet the next round of impact.

The special Xiyang archery armor, the thickness of the chest and front leg armor is twice as thick as the ordinary armor, so that the archers can shoot at close range with the enemy without avoiding the arrows, otherwise the Hulin Army will not dare to let the archers attack rashly and lure the Chen army to ride over to 'send them to death'.

"Be careful! We just sent archers to earn elephants, we don't have a share, throw spears to cover the front team to cut elephants, or no share, now it's easy to have meat delivered to the door, everyone has to keep an eye on it! ”

"Good!!"

The archers shouted in unison, and they gathered in groups and scattered among themselves to show weakness, waiting for the Chen cavalry to 'come again'.

Today, the Hulin Army got a great opportunity to come out as a bait and withstand the enemy's left and right attacks, while the team to which Hu Si Wanshan belonged was sent out as a bait to attract the Chen army's light cavalry to attack, which was very risky, but the chance of meritorious service was very high.

Because in daily training, the archers compete against small groups of cavalry, and they have the best results among their teams!

On the ground on the side, Chen Bing, who was lying down and falling from his horse, some broke his hands and feet, and even broke his spine or cervical vertebrae, even if he didn't die, he was almost out of breath, and Wang Yi, who was intact, led the cavalry to turn the horse's head not far away, he looked at the scene in front of him, and his anger surged.

Although he only lost more than 30 horses, the opponent was only an archer on foot, and his own cavalry failed to kill one of the opponents.

"Lang Jun! The war elephants seem to be dying! ”

The reminder of the trilogy made Wang Yi suddenly come back to his senses, and looked to the west, the war elephants had begun to be chaotic, he didn't care about the Zhou archers in front of him, and rode his horse to reinforce the elephant army, at this moment, the horn sounded in the north, and it was the cavalry of the Zhou army that went and returned.

At the same time, there were also many cavalry in the large array of slang soldiers not far to the west, and Wang Yi was overjoyed when he saw this, and galloped towards the elephant army.

"I'll break the siege of the elephant army first, and then I'll defeat you!"
